General Surgeon,  's  Response
I welcome you to healthcare magic
I am Dr Fahim, and I will help you with your query . . .

What I gather from your question
- cyst on inner thigh
- started with pimple thing
- now its huge and painful

On the basis of provided information it appears to be a BOIL. It starts as pimple then pus develops and the pain increases.

If such a patient walk into my clinic I do incision and drainage with daily dressing to follow. I also prescribe antibiotic like amoxicillin and paracetamol as analgesics. The patients are usually all right in few days time.

I hope this will help you in solving your problem. Wishing you rapid recovery. Please do rate my answer if you like it.
